BURLINGAME, Calif., Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
ARES Security Corporation, an enterprise security risk management solutions company, announced today that it has named Mr. Ben Eazzetta as its President. After officially establishing the company in October 2012, Dr. Richard J. Stuart, Chief Executive Officer and principal owner, has appointed Ben Eazzetta as President of ARES Security to drive the company's mission of providing software and services to visualize, analyze and optimize security environments in both the government and non-regulated commercial markets. In addition to Mr. Eazzetta's role as President of ARES Security Corporation, he has been placed in charge of Corporate Development for all of ARES Corporation. This role will include managing all merger and acquisition activity for ARES.

Prior to joining ARES Security, Ben was President of International Operations for Rolta India Limited, a leading multinational technology services provider. In this role, Ben Eazzetta grew Rolta's international business from $25 million of annual revenue to over $300 million in five years. "I expect a similar growth path for ARES Security," said Mr. Eazzetta. "I was attracted to ARES Security because I enjoy working with companies that provide mission critical solutions to large, growing markets. As markets become more interdependent, risks become more complex and the pressure to react quickly becomes greater. Executives today need to spend half their time growing their business and the other half managing risks. With our solutions, ARES helps organizations protect their personnel, clients, and business operations and thereby their profitability."
Prior to Rolta, Mr. Eazzetta served as President of Intergraph Corporation's Security, Government and Infrastructure division, where he was responsible for all aspects of global sales, marketing, delivery and business development. He has also worked at Exxon Company, USA, for twelve years, where he began his career as a mechanical engineer. Mr. Eazzetta graduated from Georgia Tech with a bachelor's degree in nuclear engineering and master's degree in mechanical engineering. Mr. Eazzetta sits on the Rolta International board and other private advisory boards.

"Under Ben's leadership, ARES Security will extend the market reach of the AVERT and BluTrain software solutions while positioning for development and release of complementary technologies," said Dr. Stuart. "Ben's appointment rounds out the company's executive team that includes Mr. Steve Fogarty, Senior Vice President, Mr. Robert H. Scott and Mr. John Halsema who joined the company last year to lead the business development and product development divisions respectively."
